Wednesday ~~ June 24, 2015 ~~ Plain ole Jane told a story.....

Posted 06-24-2015 at 04:10 PM by CSD610


The title probably makes no sense to you and you may or may not recognize the words and where they are from.

The title are words from the song Drops Of Jupiter sung by Train. A song written after the lead singer's Mother died. The words of this song if you just read them really make no sense at all but in song they just flow beautifully.

The rest of the line for the title is:
Plain ole Jane told a story about a man who was too afraid to fly so he never did land.

That makes about as much sense as me finding a marble in the front yard of a home we lived in about 8 years ago. There was no logical reason for me to have found that marble, especially in the front yard but I did indeed find that marble. I believe I even wrote a blog on this forum about finding that marble.

Some songs tell a perfect story from the first word to the last word. Other songs tell a sorrowful story or a story of lost love, found love, finding oneself or describing the realities of life. Some reach your very soul and you can relate then other songs mean nothing to you at all.

The songs can be so varied in words, music, lyric, meanings, or the words can be written to not mean anything in particular. Songs just like movies, love, life, hate, sorrow, joy, pain, emotions, colors, numbers, clothing, shoes, animals, thoughts, feelings and everything else is as individual as every individual human, animal, mineral or vegetable on the planet.

There may be things that are similiar in everything and everyone however, no one and nothing is exactly the same. Even twins have slight differences, triplets and other multiple birth children have them as well.

They are not the same children, they are all individuals. Their looks are similiar but not exactly the same, there is somewhere, somehow those children are different in physical appearance.

With anything you encounter or refuse to encounter how do you know if you will like it or not if you do not encounter it?
How do you know a song will mean something to you or not if you do not listen to it?

Just like eating vegetables, how do you know you won't like those turnips if you never eat one? How about meeting other humans, how do you know you will not like someone as a friend or find someone attractive if you never actually speak to them, get to know them, spend time together?

In reality you don't and so many approach only those they "feel" they are attracted to physically, especially if they are looking for someone to date. They do not even think it is possible that there is more to liking, loving, dating, marriage, having children or having sex with someone they are not physically attracted to. That someone does not fall into some labeled, rigid category that they have created.

Honestly it is shameful how some of the people on this very forum talk about their labels, ratings, numbers, expectations, requirements and all the other nonsense they have on their checklist.

What about the future? What about an accident? What about an illness?
It is possible that the physical attributes that are so important will not be the same in a year, two years, 10 years. Not to mention in 50 years.

There is so much more to a human, relationships, loving, living, marriage and the future. The one thing that appears to be a stumbling block to many because they appear to forget that as their partner ages, they age as well.

There has to be something more to your relationship than the physical, sexual attraction. You can find physical, sexual attraction dang near anywhere. What you cannot find dang near anywhere is the person you can actually share your entire life with. Thoughts, secrets, love, hate, pain, joy, trials, tribulations, triumphs.

THAT my dears is what you should seek within your lifetime. Even if the person that holds all of these things that you will or should come to cherish in your relationship is not exactly perfect according to your certified requirement list of nonsense.

Think about it and I mean seriously take a very good, very long look at yourself. What do you have to offer this potential relationship? Are you trustworthy, honest, loving without boundries, sharing, giving, willing to share your secrets, lies and alibis?
Are you exactly perfect physically? Are you photo shop perfect in the middle of a field of Lillies with nothing on but your skin?

The one you share your life with now or wish to share your life with in the future, can you honestly say that you are worthy of their everything even if you have nothing to offer but yourself in that field of Lillies with nothing on but your skin?

If they are in that field of Lillies will you still be standing by their side without hesitation?

So a few things above to ponder if you choose to and I will leave you with one question:

If you drop your toothbrush and it hits the top of the covered litter box on the way to the floor, do you bleach it and continue to use it or throw it away and get a new one?

As usual I wish you restful sleep and peaceful dreams when it comes time for you to wander your timbers of slumber.
